Tomato Overload!

This past Saturday was both the Horticultural Society of Parkdale and Toronto's annual plant sale and the You Grow Girl plant swap. My intentions were good- I had my eye on a couple plants from the Hort sale and had arranged with the YGGers to swap a few of my extras for a few things I was missing. I did not intend on coming home with 20 more tomato plants, but somehow I did...

On top of that, we are having unseasonably cool weather- we saw snow yesterday and a frost warning last night. So all of my fragile tomatoes who had been happily living outdoors for weeks had to be brought back inside. This is what 50+ tomato plants ( plus a few friends) looks like inside.

Backyard Farms

About Me

CallieK is my online nickname and so it seems only fitting that my farmer is named Callie as well. We look a bit alike although I think my nose is smaller.
I live in downtown Toronto with my boyfriend the Russian dancer and our 3 cats. As soon as Toronto allows backyard chickens we'll be adding some of those. For now we spend most of our time building, planting things, and canning everything that will go in a jar.
